September 4, 2025,Esquelbecq des chênes au château

Waited until the last raindrops had fallen before setting off. The first few hundred meters were a bit boring, but the rest was fine. Apparently, the British cemetery at Esquelbecq was on the route. I'd been there before. The short version turns off where the long one closes the loop. @Chantal

Departure from the oak room
Village of Esquelbecq says the village of books. Not far from Wormhout and located 18kms from Bergues..
There is also the castle and these gardens, which are closed today.
At the beginning of the hike paved road, then gradually small roads and small path..
